A fine and very hard racer, who I used to see at Crystal Palace circuit in the early 1960's, where he was untouchable. Unlike many at that time, he made a lot of money out of racing, justifiably so because like all drivers in those days he really put it on the line, and he played a big part in the development of the Ford GT40 with John Wyer's Gulf team. It leaves only Moss and Gonzales as the last survivors of the 'heroic' age of motor sport. RIP.
